PRODUCT CONFIGURATION / SPECIFICATIONS
*The noise levels stated in the table are from laboratory testing and are not sufficient risk evaluation. Values
measured in a particular work place may be different from the declared values. The actual exposure values and
amount of risk or harm experience by an individual is unique to each situation depending on the surrounding situation.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Before each use:
• Always operate, inspect and maintain tool in accordance with all regulations that may apply to
handheld, hand operated pneumatic tools
• Use a clean lubricated air supply that will give a measured air pressure at the tool of 6.2 bar (90
psig) when the tool is running with the lever fully depressed. Tool will operate at less than maximum
pressure - performance will be reduced. It is recommended to use an approved 10 mm (3/8 in) x 8
m (25 ft) maximum length airline.
Beginning of each use:
• Lubricate tool by putting 2 to 3 drops of suitable pneumatic motor lubricating oil into the hose end
(inlet) of the tool. Connect the tool to the air line and run slowly for a few seconds. Disconnect to
safely install desired abrasive. If tool is used frequently, oil daily or when the tool begins to slow or
lose power.
• Select desired abrasive and install with wrenches provided. Ensure abrasive product is rated for
the tools rpm rating. Use the wrench to secure the collet body while turning the collet nut clockwise.
Ensure abrasive is mounted properly before use - an inadequately inserted shank could bend or
break causing damage to the tool and work piece and possible injury to the operator or bystanders.
• Depress switch to operate tool.
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
• Read all instructions before using this tool. All operators must be fully trained in its use and aware
of safety rules.
• The tool RPM should be checked on a regular basis (at shift change).
• Always wear required safety equipment when using this tool.
• Always remove the air supply to the sander before fitting, adjusting or removing the abrasive or
disc pad.
• Always adopt a firm footing and grip and be aware of torque reaction developed by the sander.
• Use only PTA Canada approved spare parts.
• Always ensure the material being worked is firmly fixed to avoid movement.
• Check hose and fittings regularly for wear. Do not carry the tool by its hose.
• Dust can be highly combustible. Vacuum dust collection bag should be cleaned or replaced as
needed.
• If tool is serviced or rebuilt, check to ensure the maximum tool RPM is not exceeded and that there
is not excessive tool vibration.
• Do not exceed maximum recommended air pressure. Use safety equipment as recommended.
• Prior to installing any shaft mounted abrasive or sanding or grinding accessory, always check that
its marked maximum operating speed is equal or higher than the rated speed of this tool.
• The tool is not electrically insulated. Avoid use near live electricity, gas pipes, and/or water pipes.
• This tool is not protected against hazards inherent in cutting operations, and no such cutting
products should ever be attached.
• Take care to avoid entanglement with the moving parts of the tool with clothing, ties, hair, cleaning
rags or loose hanging objects. If entangled, stop air supply immediately to avoid contact with
moving tool parts.
• Keep hands clear of the spinning pad or spindle during use.
• If the tool appears to malfunction, remove from use immediately and arrange for service and
repair.
• Immediately release the start handle in the event of any disruption of pressure; do not attempt to
re-start until the disruption has been corrected.
• When tool is not in use, store in a clean, dry environment free of debris.
